Had you gone to Jerusalem that day so long ago, and had you gone just outside the wall to the north, out through the Damascus gate, there you would have seen a rocky hill. And on that hill, you would have seen three crosses, with the men on those crosses.

Bless Like You Never Been Hurt Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jun 1, 2021

What is our natural response when someone hurts us? I can think of two. The first is to get back at the person in some way for what they have done to us. The second natural response is to say that I will have nothing more to do with them. God's response is that I am to bless them.

Introduction Today, I want us to move our priestly duty of being a channel of blessings to a higher level. It might be easy for some of you to bless a stranger; it might be easy for some of you to bless a family member; it might be easy for you to bless a fellow church member. But I would dare say ...read more
